>> jimmy: hi. how you doing? hello, everybody. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thanks for watching and thanks for showing up. i tell you something, we were off last week. it's starting to get christmassy around here. the fake wreaths are hanging. the lattes at starbucks are spiced. the holidays are upon us and won't get off us. we're exactly two weeks away from christmas right now. it's time to start practicing your pretending to like a gift face. christmas is a major operation for me. i buy hundreds of gifts and i buy them all myself. people think i have an assistant. i do but he doesn't do anything for me. he does some things for me, believe me. but he's having a baby. i went to costco this weekend. it was a two-cart weekend for costco. people were asking if i worked there. i move things like i'm one of

the employees. leaving costco my truck was packed so tightly i couldn't see out of the windows. i could see out of the front and 1/18 out of the window in the back and the truck was almost completely packed with alcohol. it was. [ cheers and applause ] something -- if someone had rear ended me i wouldn't have been arrested for a dui. i would have drowned. and now i have to wrap -- you don't have to wrap alcohol, do you? i bought sweaters to put around the bottles. i'm a terrible gift wrappers. i'm good at a lot of things, sex obviously. i can cook. i draw. i know how to juggle. but i cannot do a decent job of wrapping a gift. most guys are bad at this. are you or aren't you supposed to use crazy glue on the corners of these things. i wind up with too much paper or not enough. sometimes i have a rectangle on the side of the box and i have

another rectangle and taping it on the thing and it's embarrassing. i think this is why in commercials men always give their wives cars. just put a bow on it and you're set. women seem to be a lot better at wrapping. i was thinking about why that is. i think i figured out why. look at them. they wear bows and ribbons. they are presents. they have been wrapping themselves every day since they turned 7 years old. meanwhile us, we got our -- with our baseball caps and big oversized team jackets. that's the fashion equivalent of a gift bag. you stuff yourself into it. is it bad to ask your girlfriend to wrap her own gifts? it is? that's good for me to know. i need one of those men in black memory erasers.

i can do it and go back as if it never happened. i wonder if president obama wraps his own gifts. the local fox affiliate in seattle ran a story about christmas in the white house. the white house is fully decorated now and the obamas will have a fun holiday this year. >> some republicans are pushing boehner to avoid the white house for blaming them for a crash on the taxes on the rich. >> the white house is ready for christmas. the first lady gave a tour of the presidential decorations and that is not it. >> how do you know? maybe they have been growing something in the garden. the white house released their holiday card. it is a realistic painting. it's the obama family dog in front of the white house. the painting was done in black and white.

it's based on a color photo. that's the original photo. it was a little too colorful for me. a very colorful. i think beau might be getting to the obama supply of centrum. speaking of the holiday spirit this is nice. this happened in thanksgiving. a station in kentucky was doing a live report from a shelter that does an annual thanksgiving dinner. keep an eye on what goes on in the background in tonight's edition of "behind the news. >> what are you thankful this thanksgiving? >> this thanksgiving i'm thankful i see all these men and women in this hotel who come in and have a good thanksgiving and share it with us that i have my life back, my grandchildren, my son. i have a wonderful job now. i couldn't be more blessed. >> spirit of the holidays. everyone wants a drumstick. what are you going to do?

tonight is the third night of hanukkah. my favorite thing about hanukkah is there is no wrong way to spell it. i think chewbacca is acceptable. it's like the jewish version of kwanza. if you are looking for a hanukkah gift for someone you love, we have a gift guide for you. to make it easier we curated the best of the best products from late night tv commercials. these are potential gifts that i think everyone will love. if they don't love it there is a good chance they will send you your money back, guaranteed. >> the singing parakeet will touch your heart and brighten any room in your home. in fact even this live parakeet can't tell the difference.

i have the go joe hands free. the go joe goes on in one second. hello? one mississippi, i can't talk now. the go joe will hold a five-pound laptop. these stand up like a tripod. they're easy to pick up and put back down. they rip ribs right off the rack. >> stretching on the hard floor won't fix it. now there's neck right. the inflatable pillow that's designed to soothe neck strain and tension any time you need relief. >> remove the contents in just seconds. i own your shake down. shampoo, air conditioner, even peanut buttner just seconds. >> the i-grow is the world's most advanced hair growing system. it's convenient to use
